I spoke to the Manager in Tesco Renfrew and she said 'because there was a gap in the POS offer, then that complied with the trading laws. I said it was misleading and unclear, She said that the customer can check their receipt, sure so long as they take one when asked if they want one...
I spoke to Tesco Head Office, they did nothing, the same with Trading Standards.
What do you think?

Also not sure if they give double the difference still.
